Calendar Widget · macOS desktop widget · 1.1.0

just a calendar.
imagine that.

A tiny macOS desktop calendar widget for people who want to know what day it is without opening a productivity suite and accepting three new terms of service.

Single month, multiple months, themes, custom colors, month flipping, and a tap that opens Calendar. Revolutionary stuff. Truly, civilization trembles.

what it is.

DESKTOPS USED TO HAVE THINGS ON THEM

So here's a thing for yours.

THE WHOLE PITCH

Calendar Widget puts a simple calendar on your Mac desktop. Pick the layout and colors, glance at the month, move on with your life.

It is not a team planning platform. It is not a second inbox. It is a calendar widget, because sometimes the correct amount of software is less software.

what it does.

Single or multi-month

Use a compact one-month widget or a wider multi-month view when you need to perceive time as a larger, more judgmental rectangle.

Themes and colors

Theme presets and custom colors let it fit your desktop instead of arriving dressed like enterprise software at a birthday party.

Month flipping

Flip through months without opening Calendar just to answer “what day is the 17th?” like some kind of scheduling archaeologist.

Opens Calendar

Tap it and macOS Calendar opens. Not because we are trying to become your calendar app. We are explicitly not doing that.

Automatic updates

Version 1.1.0 adds Sparkle updates. Use Check for Updates, or let it check quietly in the background like a polite raccoon.

macOS 14.6+

The current direct download requires macOS 14.6 or newer. Older Macs can stare at a paper calendar, which honestly still works.

macOS 14.6+

No account

No login, no cloud dashboard, no analytics funnel. The app runs locally and leaves you alone, a bold and suspicious design choice.
